Expect the same demands until Democrats show some balls, man.

As a narcissist and power-hungry prick, Trump will fucking milk you if you come at him from a weak position. Progressives warned the Senate Democratic leadership about this and were, hence, outraged when the Democratic leadership surrendered all leverage on spending.

No we get it. But bipartisan implies that both parties support something. No Dem supports Trump’s four pillars. It doesn’t matter what Trump thinks. By the very definition of bipartisan, Trump’s proposal is not bipartisan.

Now, the Dream Act, the Durbin Graham compromise, the USA Act all have support from members of both parties. Hence they are bipartisan.

Stop using that word in that context. It’s incorrect. You can use “compromise” or “generous” but in order for something to be bipartisan, some Dems and some Reps have to support it.

And, Democrats need to show some balls in order to make that happen. Many of us keep repeating this. This shit isn't just happening in a vacuum of baseless fuckery. Many of us knew since this December that this would be the scenario if Dems didn't hold the line then. The more time and leverage they let go by, the more they were setting themselves up for this take it or leave situation with Trump. They let themselves get cornered.

Yes, Republicans and Trump are assholes. Yes, they deserve more blame. But, democrats also deserve blame for being such bitches and putting themselves in this bargaining trap.

I totally agree with this sentiment. Versailles, however, is figuratively strutting haughtily because he/she believes that they have some unique perspective on the world. This is, however, incorrect. They truly have no idea what their talking about, a fact that is exposed by their inability to understand the words that they use.

I don't get why people expect Democrats to do anything now when they chose not to do anything when they had a super majority and the presidency.

Sadly, I don't expect them to do anything either. That makes them somewhat blameworthy here. That's my point.

Trump was the one who ended DACA in the first place, and now hes shifting blame?

Congress is run by Republicans, we have a Republican president, and they cant shit done at all. Not even Republicans voted on Trumps own bill.
